Lionel Moreno complained of unjustified “harassment” Wednesday during a 30-minute video visit from inside the Geauga County Jail in Chardon, Ohio.

“I came here to America because I was persecuted in my country … but they are doing the same thing to me in America: persecuting me,” lamented the 27-year-old Moreno.

“False information about me in the media. They slander me. “I'm misrepresented in the news… I'm a good father, a good husband, a good son, a good man, humble, respectful of people who respect me,” Moreno continued, speaking only in Spanish.

With Moreno out of frame, the camera showed inmates in blue-striped jumpsuits sitting at five silver metal tables through a glass window. At one point during the video visit, five inmates looked in his direction, some shouting at him inexplicably.

“whats going on?” Moreno could hear himself muttering to himself.

“I'm afraid they're going to kill me. “They're coming for my life!” said.

Moreno said he's been in touch with his wife, Veronica Torres, and since his incarceration has urged The Post to contact him so he can “collect” an undisclosed amount for a “nice interview” with her. The post does not pay for interviews.
